Exegesis
The construct phrase al-shod bat-ammi {עַל־שֹׁד בַּת־עַמִּי | ʿal-šôḏ baṯ-ʿam-mî} ‘over the destruction of the daughter of my people’ employs possessive constructs and personification to underscore communal loss. English preserves Hebrew word-order emphases and relational structures.
In context — Isaiah 22:4
Therefore I said, “Look away from me; I will bitterly weep in my tears. Do not hurry to comfort me concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people .”
